Hollow by Karina Halle

3.0

This was not what I was expecting and after I took some time to think about it, I'm really glad it wasn't!

Perfectly creepy for spooky season with witchy vibes and creepy ghosties but HOLY MOLY the heat on this spice was making my Kindle emit steam lol.

Crane is a much more engaging character than in any of the Sleepy Hollow stories I've read or watched .. when you read his POV you get the feeling that you're in that brilliant and wildly processing brain as he jumps through his thoughts to reach conclusions.

Because of Crane's enigmatic character, Kat falls a little flat for me - he takes up so much energy in the story that even with a dual POV, I found myself looking forward to the chapters written from his perspective. I will VERY strongly stand by the development of the relationship between Kat, Crane and Brom.. I'm always curious how a throuple will work and this is the 2nd book I've read this month where the author did a fabulous job of creating a believable story arc involving all three characters and their romance.

If you like:
- novellas that end on a cliffy (and man that was an aggressive end!)
- MMF/MFM/FMM love stories
- secrets, betrayal, broken promises and HEAT..
.. you won't be disappointed in this quick Sleepy Hollow retelling.
